The 80s continue to roll on as we land at the penultimate Roger Moore outing as James Bond 007 with the 1983 film Octopussy which starts off the “BATTLE OF THE BONDS”. Just what is going on in this film that makes sense with the plot? Does Bond turn into a murderous bastard at the beginning of the film? Why does Colin like cardboard? Will Noah make any reference to facial hair again? Is Ben happy to see a horsey again in the film? Who the hell is Camellia Toe? What is the purpose of Octopussy? And why is Q so horny in this film? You know what to do, click it and have all your answers…well…answered!
